I thought this place had solid Thai food. We came here around an hour or less before closing time. It wasn't too packed at that time. The food came out very fast, probably because it wasn't that busy and it was near closing time. For a drink, I got (I think) the passionfruit yuzu soda. It was tasty, but I wished it had more carbonation. I feel like it probably needed more ginger ale. I heard the matcha here is really good, but I am not a huge fan of matcha so I didn't try it We ordered the papaya salad, drunken noodles, and the pork belly kra prao. The papaya salad was solid. The drunken noodles were pretty good but maybe a little softer than I would like. I enjoyed the pork belly kra prao. I thought the inside was cute, and the ambiance was good. I would come back here again! read more

I found this place because I was searching for matcha and Thai tea. And I saw this place has matcha flights! I unfortunately couldn't do the flight this time around because I knew I needed to eat but plan on trying it next time. I liked that this was in a shopping center so plenty of parking. The decor is perfect for those who love taking pictures whether just of the food and drinks or of yourself as well. The staff are all very nice and the food and drinks came out fast. We tried the steam dumplings, crispy duck kra prao, chicken basil fried rice, salted caramel cloud red Thai tea, and cookie butter matcha. Really loved the drinks. The dumplings you have to dip in the sauce or it does taste a little bland. Sauce brings out the flavors and texture. The fried rice was very yummy and the duck was great reheated. I couldn't finish my dish as my drink and appetizer filled me up. This will be on my list of places to try again. read more

The Nalak Matcha Flight is cute and a bit gimmicky but it's a lot of fun. Matcha is ok quality and the mango and strawberry uses oat milk, no substitutes allowed. I liked the coconut cloud and Thai tea, but it's really just a fun drink. You don't need high quality matcha for it. The color was a bit dull, but it doesn't really matter when it becomes a sweet drink. Their food is better in my opinion. The Thai Beef Steak special is good, a fair amount of meat and veggies with a lovely teriyaki-flavor savory sauce. The veggies were wet though and watered down the sauce though. The panang curry is not too creamy. Both great with rice. The grilled skewers were good and well grilled and came with a warmed sweet and sour sauce. Overall, a good spot but nothing too special. They have a lot of different items to choose from and lots of matcha options, but I would not say anything was necessarily high quality at the price point. I do want to try the black sesame matcha next time. read more

Everything was great except we thought from the description of the food we were getting something else. We really need to ask more questions or show a picture.

Nalak Thai - Thai iced tea with matcha cloud was truly spectacular - Thai Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Pretty quick and attentive service and experience! I enjoyed my food and drink here. I enjoyed the tiramisu matcha although was confused at the concept at first, but mixing the tiramisu and matcha was quite good! The duck was tasty and filling - perhaps a bit more pricier than I was expecting though. Good spot for Thai food with nice vibes! read more

This is my new favorite Thai place in the area! Nalak serves modern Thai cuisine with a twist -- there's a mix of classics, comfort food, and street food. They also have a wide selection of matcha coffees and other coffee/tea drinks to have with your meal. It's not something you usually see at Thai restaurants, and they have several creative options that are worth trying if you're a matcha fan. The service was also excellent. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without being overbearing. Overall, Nalak Thai is a solid spot in Fairfax if you're looking for flavorful Thai food in a modern setting. Definitely a place I'd come back to over and over again! read more

4.8/5 Such a cute Thai spot! The interior has soft, warm lighting that makes it perfect for a cozy, casual dinner. The vibe feels intimate and relaxed. The drunken noodles were the standout for me. Super umami, savory, and well-balanced with that perfect sweet-salty-spicy combo. We also tried the red curry. The broth itself was flavorful, but I wish the seafood (especially the shrimp and scallops) had absorbed more of the curry as they tasted a bit separate from the sauce rather than infused with it. Service was excellent, staff very friendly and attentive. They checked in on us multiple times without being overbearing, which I always appreciate. Overall, I'd definitely come back, especially for the drunken noodles. read more

Nalak Thai was so good! I ordered the Pad Prik Khing and crab rangoons, and everything arrived hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The Pad Prik Khing had the perfect sweet and spicy curry flavor, and the vegetables were cooked really well. The crab rangoons were also delicious and crispy. This was my first time ordering, and now I can't wait to go in person and try more from the menu. Definitely recommend! read more

Found Nalak from instagram and decided to give it a shot! They've only been open for 2.5 months but they are already killing it. The decor and vibes were wonderful, nicely decorated and not overly loud. They are known for their matcha, so our table tried the black sesame, tiramisu and the ube Thai tea. All three were delicious and not overly sweet. To share, we started with the crab rangoon, spring rolls and drunken noodles. All three were very tasty and fresh! For entrees, I got the tom yum mama and my friends got the pork belly, duck and panang curry. The tom yum mama was to die for! Loaded with seafood, noodles and the broth was delectable. Though I didn't try the other dishes, similar reviews came from my friends - everyone loving their dishes! Our waitress was very attentive, kind and helpful with suggestions! We will be back! read more

The crispy duck kra pow was absolutely delicious and I would come back again and again for this dish. It paired well with the som thum to add a little freshness between the savory-ness of the duck. The crab rangoons were also surprisingly delicious and the sweet sauce paired perfectly with it. The Khao soi was personally not my favorite dish. The soup was on the lighter side and seemed a little watered down. I'm use to this broth being a thicker, richer curry broth. The Thai tea was also very flavorful and well made. Overall I would come back to try some other dishes and drinks on their menu. read more

The interior is decorated nicely, spacious, and clean. The workers were also very friendly and attentive! My favorite part was the matcha! There are so many different types of specialty matchas with different fruits and toppings. I really enjoyed my fig matcha! The matcha mousse was better than matcha milk base which was a little grainy. I really like how the matchas come with a fun little gift too! The entrees were good, but a little too sweet for everyone's preference. I think I would definitely come back for the drinks! read more

For a Thai restaurant a very good addition to your rotation. Small, like a lot of these good-kitchen Thai spots, with a quick-gloss glow up decor for a simple modern dinner vibe. The unique part compared to most -- go to the back menu and its drinks section of the tea-blends and other options where they stand out. You get the ability to find some nice add ons to really replace any need for any other outing for a bubble-tea or the like, they'll have you covered. On a Friday evening, their small space fills up - so be ready for a potential small wait. Seats do rotate fairly quick for the small table style. A good option for shared plate or whatever singular need you have, while being better than a lot of the other nearby Thai spots. read more

Nalak Thai - Pineapple fried rice and beef drunken noodles - Thai Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Hip and modern little Thai restaurant in the plaza next to Great Wall Chinese supermarket - lots of parking. We came in as a party of 2 on a Friday evening and was able to get a seat right away. The place was filling up and the ambiance is a contemporary low-key vibe, soft hip hop, more of an east coast than west coast feel. We ordered the Penang curry with pork belly and since it was our first time, a Pad Thai with crispy chicken - just to set a baseline. The curry was bomb. Definitely has authenticity, really thick and aromatic - rich with coconut and lots of peanut flavor. Has just enough spice to make the dish tang and enough citrus to brighten the taste. The pairing works really well with the crispy pork belly and broccoli. It comes with a small bowl of rice and just slabbering the curry all over really hits the spot. Extremely well constructed dish. The Pad Thai was quite interesting. It's a bit more pan fried than I'm typically used to (which I personally appreciate) but they add some sort of mystery ingredient that I don't normally encounter in pad Thai . Vinegar? Mint? Lemongrass? It kinda works but thought it was just a tad overpowering, made us measure our bites instead of just wolfing it down like typical pad Thai. The crispy chicken however was phenomenal. They definitely marinate the chicken before breading and crisping it, and it really pops out. Super juicy and compensated for the unexpected pad Thai flavor. It's a bit pricy, but the food itself is well crafted, kudos to chef and team. Nice date night spot, but wouldn't be a regular there. Elevated Thai is an interesting concept that certainly could be a niche. tldr; tasty Thai spot, keeping true to classic favorites while sprinkling in their own modern twists. It's a bit pricey for Thai food, but worth checking out read more

My friends and I were enticed by a post we saw on IG so we decided to check Nalak Thai out. It is located in a shopping center with plenty of parking. They do not have their liquor license yet so no alcoholic drinks are available. Onto the review.... TBH, we were very disappointed. The service was fantastic, however, the dishes were overpriced and not that great. They were a bit on the sweeter side and the price of adding protein was higher than most other Thai restaurants. The dishes were also a smaller portion than what I usually get at other restaurants as well. The mango in the mango sticky rice dish had an odd taste to it. Overall, I will not be back since there are much better Thai options around. read more

Hands down, this is one of my new favorite Thai spots in the area. I was sold the moment I saw their unique matcha drinks, and they absolutely delivered. The atmosphere: Cozy, with a small dining area, so I'd recommend a reservation if you're coming with a larger group. The space is beautifully decorated with great lighting. The food: The Strawberry Matcha was delicious for a reason. It's a fan favorite. The Matcha Thai Tea was also good, though a bit on the sweeter side. My favorite dish was the Crispy Duck Kra Prao. It was super flavorful, perfectly crispy, and had just the right amount of spice. The red curry with crispy chicken was tasty and I loved the chicken's texture, but the curry itself was a little too watery for my preference. The Pad See Ew with beef was excellent, one of the best I've had. The beef was tender and everything was seasoned really well. The service: Wonderful service all around. The staff was kind, attentive, and gave great recommendations. read more

I would give it a 3.5 honestly. + cute interior + friendly service + food was okay but but I've had better Thai + matcha latte was good + cashew pork was tasty, served with a good amount of rice - papaya salad wasn't spicy enough nor did it have enough fish sauce, the flavor was peanut heavy - the mango wasn't ripe enough in the mango sticky rice. I was hesitant about ordering since mango isn't in season and I should've stuck to not getting it. - the bathroom was outdated and a complete mismatch of the decor up front - the chair and table was wobbly which is odd since it's a new restaurant - the booths are too far away from the table Note: I saw what appeared to be the staff getting ready to eat together at a table and I loved seeing that. The menu has a lot of matcha but most of it isn't matcha lattes (or at least not advertised as such), they simply have a matcha foam. read more

We went there at 6pm on a Saturday. There was plenty of seating but got much more crowded 20 minutes into our meal. We were seated promptly and helped to menus (which were very long and extensive, lots of options!!) and glasses of water. The ambience was lively (because of the music being played) but it was slightly hushed conversations- making for great vibes everything we ordered was good or at least (true to the description). The sesame matcha was incredibly sesame tasting- Thai tea matcha was phenomenal but bitter. Fried banana rolls were hot, fresh and paired lovelily with the ice cream and the bua loy though not our favorite had a yummy sauce! Our straws were also heart shaped and we were given complementary Sanrio hair ties! 10/10 for drinks and desserts! Will have to come back and try some of their other food. read more

I was finally able to make a visit and brought along two friends who were visiting from Greece. Surprisingly this restaurant is surrounded by other establishments such as Hyderabad House, BBQ 21 and Yi Fang Taiwan Tea. As you walked in, you will be mesmerized by the unique light fixture, modern and sleek interior and comfortable atmosphere. There were 7 items ordered: 1) Moo Ping 2) Fried Tofu 3) Beef Salad 4) Pad Thai 5) Panang Curry 6) Mango Sticky Rice 7) Drunken Noodle. When the moo ping arrive to the table, the grilled pork skewers were tender, nice charred and delicious. The fried tofu were colossal, lightly fried, served with a sweet chili pineapple sauce but be careful on your first bite as the interior is piping hot. As you carefully dip the tofu in the sauce, they are tender, bouncy and delicious. We can't forget about the beef salad, the combination and flavors were on point. The slice beef was so tender that was accompanied by cucumbers, red onions, romaine whites, green onions and drizzle with a spicy lime dressing which makes this dish so refreshing and delicious. The chicken pad thai was incredibly amazing, one of the stables of Thailand. The panang curry with tofu and broccoli was tasty and good. For dessert, we got the mango sticky rice. Everything about this dish was on point, just wish there were a little bit more of the coconut syrup and the rice was very moist. There wasn't any mung bean toppings unless they ran out. Unfortunately their drunken noodles with beef were good and tasty but their wide noodles were overcooked and the slice beef were cooked inconsistently. Some beef were tough ànd the ones under the pile of noodles were tender. Our server Zinny was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. For each dish, they will ask how your spice level is and implement to your liking. We had excellent service, as all staff members were friendly and will stop by your table to check on you. I would definitely make another visit to try other items on their menu. read more

Good food and location...but a 20% service charge? I brought my family (a party of six) to Nalak Thai a few weeks ago for dinner. I grew up in Thai Food, so I appreciated and enjoyed the food, as did my family. My wife and kids are also matcha fans, so they enjoyed the different matcha drink selection that Nalak Thai offered. Enjoyed dinner, and I got the bill and tipped 20%. It wasn't until I got home and looked at the itemized receipt that I noticed a "Service Charge" of 20% was tacked on. Now I know as a consumer I should check the bill to make sure it's accurate before I left. But it had gotten late on a weeknight and my youngest had school the next day and I had work. At no point did the server or anyone state that there would be a 20% service charge tacked on the bill. Maybe it was listed on the menu, but it wasn't prominent enough that I (or the five others in my party for that matter) noticed it. Maybe the 20% "service charge" was an automatic gratuity since we were a party of six...but if that was the case, the line item should have said "gratuity" instead of "service charge". This is too bad. My family liked Nalak Thai, and their menu differentiates their restaurant from other Thai restaurants in the area, but I don't think we'll be heading back. Make sure you review your check before you leave. read more

Update: I went back for a redemption meal and it was FIRE !! 5 stars! I got the wings as an appetizer and it came with a sweet chili sauce to start. Shrimp pineapple fried rice! Wow 10/10 so good the wok taste was amazing. Drunken noodle with chicken, and we asked for it spicy and it did not disappoint! I loved mixing it with the rice! Tonight's dinner was incredible! --- I had seen all the social media posts of this newly opened Thai and matcha spot in Fairfax. It is located next to Great Wall, and has taken over another Thai spot. The interior is beautiful with green and gold accents. There's a decent sized seating. Upon arrival, we were greeted well and checked in with. The service was very attentive and kind. Chicken larb: 8/10 Very acidic, a lot of lime taste, but the right amount of spice. This was tasty, I wish it came with rice. Shrimp pad Thai: 7/10 It was too sweet for my liking. I wish there was more fish sauce added. The noodles and the dish itself was great, just too sweet. Green panang curry: 5/10- 7/10 There's two ratings bc I sent it back. When it first came, it was SO SWEET I could not eat it. I eat a lot of Thai food, and have some thai family, and maybe I'm unfamiliar with that region of Thais food but it tasted like no salt was added. I couldn't eat it. BUT the service was GREAT, and sent it back immediately for me. I asked for less sweetness and more spicy. When it came out again, I was surprised they redid the dish, I thought they'd just add some salt or seasoning but it was new. And this second time, it was really good! Perfect amount of flavor, and some spice too! I was happy that they fixed it to my taste. Strawberry matcha latte: 9/10 Very flavorful and smooth, heavy on the strawberry but so so good! I'd even say it's better than TeasnYou and that's saying a LOT! I'll definitely be back, bc the service was really wonderful! I want to try more noodle dishes, but I'll ask it to be SPICY! (To avoid the sweetness of the dishes and sending it back) I also want to try more matcha drinks!! The flight looks good but I wonder if you can choose which drinks to have in your flight of 4. read more

Had my birthday dinner here with a few close girlfriends. They arranged the biggest table for us in the middle of their quaint little space. The service was quick and attentive. We ordered from their mocktail menu which looked yummy and had alot of variety. I got a mango mocktail which was good. For entrees we got the chilli wings and the steamed dumplings. Both were good. For entrees we tried their chicken vegtable stirfry and the basil fried rice. We are used to thai restos in the area asking you your spice preference so when they did not, we were curious and asked and they said we usually make the food non-spicy unless someone especially asks. I thought that was different than what we were used to. The stir fry was ok - nothing exceptional. The basil fried rice was yum and we really enjoyed that. I saw a couple friends order a noodle dish which came with fried chicken and that was unique. Overall good meal and they accommodated us nicely. We thought it was on the expensive end when the bill came but the again, what is not nowadays?! read more

My friends said they also enjoyed this food, although it you Ike spicy, I would go to a higher level than 2. I also had the Thai tea matcha cloud. I was excited to try this since I hadn't seen this on any other menu. The matcha itself was a little bitter, but it blended well with the sweetness of the Thai tea. They also gave us a little bear with our drink. So cute! I would want to manage get their matcha flight when I come back. read more

Came in thinking I'd grab a quick matcha... ended up questioning every other matcha I've ever had. The matcha latte with oat milk? Perfectly balanced -- not overly sweet, not grassy, just that smooth, clean, high-quality matcha taste you only get when they actually know what they're doing. You can tell it's authentic from the first sip. And then... the Tom Yum ramen. I don't say this lightly -- I've had Tom Yum in Thailand -- and this somehow still made me stop mid-bite and look around like, "wait... why is this better?" The broth is rich, tangy, layered, with just the right amount of heat. Noodles cooked perfectly, toppings on point. I literally came back and ordered it again in the same week. No notes. Atmosphere is calm, aesthetic, and low-key elevated -- perfect for a casual meeting or solo reset moment. If you're serious about flavor and not just hype, this spot delivers. Hard. Order this: Matcha latte (oat milk) + Tom Yum ramen Do this: Come hungry and plan your return visit before you leave. read more

Thai food has to be one of my favorite cuisines - it's the combination of flavors, variety of dishes, and the feeling of comfort for me. So luckily, this spot opened nearby and every dish we've tried has hit the mark each time - from the laarb, to the tom yum, pad Thai, Khao mun crispy chicken, drunken noodles, and even their multitude of matchas. The ambiance is modern and casual, with some trendy vibes. The service is fast and friendly - which is the best kind. I look forward to trying the other staple dishes here. read more

Nalak Thai has officially won me over. The service was outstanding and atmosphere impeccable. We started with the papaya salad as an appetizer, and it was so fresh and flavorful I couldn't stop eating it. Huge bonus points for offering a vegan version for my friend, it was so good. Every dish we tried was outstanding. The Pad Thai was absolute perfection, perfectly balanced and full of flavor. I ordered it with tofu, which was cooked perfectly, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. My friend got the country curry and let me try and bite and it was rich, comforting, and delicious. And can we talk about the drinks? The matcha cloud Thai iced tea was AMAZING. Creamy, smooth, and totally crave-worthy. My only note for the owner (said with love): please consider adding a dairy-free option for the iced matcha--something like coconut condensed milk would be incredible. These drinks are already fantastic, and that small addition would make a lot of vegans very happy. Can't wait to come back, this place is a gem! read more

Been here several times to order my usual thai food and support new businesses, unfortunately this time I ordered the pad thai and noticed they used pho noodle instead of authentic pad thai noodle on top of still being a bit more pricey compared to other thai places.

Ok honestly this place is pricey. But, I thought it was without a doubt higher tier Thai food. The restaurant has a calm, simple decor. Service is great and you can tell the food comes out hot off the stove as soon as it's ready.

Even with the pricier dishes I would probably come eat here again. read more

I had heard about this new place that just opened from a friend and we decided to give it a try. I don't even really remember what used to be here, but I was excited to try a new Thai place. It's located in a shopping center and parking can get quite crowded as there are a lot of other shops around but the lot is quite big. The interior is very well decorated and very aesthetic and the lighting is really good in the restaurant as well. I think the best thing about this place was the service where they were very attentive and polite. The food in my opinion is a little bit overpriced compared to other Thai restaurants, but we ordered the chicken sauté, pad, Thai, drunken noodles, and a ginger fry. The chicken sauté came with five skewers and the sauces were quite good. My favorite was the ginger stirfry and it was very flavorful. The portions are a good size where you might have some left over to take home. I would be willing to try it again, but it also compares to a lot of other Thai restaurants in the area. read more

We ordered a few dishes to share and overall had a solid experience, with some clear standouts. The crab fried rice was generous and well-loaded with toppings. We ordered it medium spicy, which felt like a true "average medium." We personally enjoy food on the spicier side, so next time we'd probably go spicy, but we held back this round since we can't quite handle true Thai-level spicy. Flavor-wise, it was satisfying and well-balanced. The Panang curry with chicken (also medium spicy) had excellent flavor--rich, fragrant, and comforting--but the portion was a bit of a letdown. It only came with chicken and broccoli. I've definitely seen Panang curry served with more variety and vegetables elsewhere, so compared to the crab fried rice, it felt sparse despite tasting great. Drinks were a mixed bag. The black sesame matcha latte crème was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS--easily a standout and something I'd come back for on its own. On the other hand, the Thai iced tea was a bit too sweet for my liking, though that may be perfect for those who prefer a sweeter drink. Overall, strong flavors and a few highlights, with some room for improvement on curry portions. Would return, especially for the fried rice and that black sesame matcha latte. read more

After reading so many positive reviews I was excited to give this spot a try. We ended up ordering takeout. We got the crab Rangoon, chicken satay, fried rice, and the green curry with chicken. I ordered the green curry with chicken primarily because it is a good test for how good a Thai restaurant is. The dish itself was very watery and average. The pieces of chicken were large and a bit chewy and the dish overall lacked depth of flavor. Considering their price point as well it was extremely expensive for just mid to average food. There are many better Thai options in the area that I would opt for next time. read more
